Yesterday I picked up a copy of Thoroughbred and Classic Cars (UK mag)
which features on the cover a yellow TR6. This is the fifth time this
magazine has featured the Six on the cover since April, 1988 that I have
seen and purchased. All the rest are red, three Carmine and one Signal.
Years ago I remember the editors of Road and Track, who were generally
snobs with Porches and such and looked down their noses at Corvettes,
admitted that when they needed to pick up sales, what they did was put a
Vette on the cover. It looks like TR6's sell magazines in England too.
I also saw a copy of I think it was Classic and Sports car and they
featured a two page story on UK improvements for TR6s. This was
interesting and I believe the list would enjoy reading it. At the risk
of incurring the wrath of the of the copywright police, is there anyone
out there who purchased the mag and has a scanner and would be willing
to put the article on the net?
